The nighttime is undergoing unprecedented change across much of the world, with natural
light cycles altered by the introduction of artificial light emissions. Here we review the extent …

A central aim of the “lighting revolution”(the transition to solid-state lighting technology) is
decreased energy consumption. This could be undermined by a rebound effect of increased …

The environmental impacts of artificial light at night have been a rapidly growing field of
global change science in recent years. Yet, light pollution has not achieved parity with other …

Artificial light at night (ALAN) is closely associated with modern societies and is rapidly
increasing worldwide. A dynamically growing body of literature shows that ALAN poses a …

The night‐time environment is increasingly being lit, often by broad‐spectrum lighting, and
there is growing evidence that artificial light at night (ALAN) has consequences for …

The use of artificial lighting to illuminate the night has provided substantial benefits to
humankind. It has also disrupted natural daily, seasonal, and lunar light cycles as …

This review paper is the first that summarizes many aspects of the ecological role of trees in
urban landscapes while considering their growth conditions. Research Highlights are:(i) …
